Life and register readings

The life of Mehmed Münif Efendi began in Sis; the father's occupation was "Âlim". Mehmed Münif began work in 1883/84 (AH 1301). The first annual entry, for 1883/84, names Mehmed Münif as Kozan Sancağı Nüfus İdaresi stajyeri, with no place. The lists have no entry for 1889 to 1894. Next came Kars in 1894/95. For 1895 to 1899 the lists have no entry. Alongside, the lists for 1894/95 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Kozan Ziraat Bankası Şubesi yazı işleri memuru. The last posts were in Saimbeyli (Haçin) from 1899 to 1907.

Pay rose from 150 kuruş a month in 1888/89 to a peak of 400 in 1899/1900, in Saimbeyli, when 44 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1906/07.

Places in order of time

Each number is a stop: the birthplace, the place of first work, then every place of the annual entries in turn. The year beside an arrow is the first entry at the new place.
